So have they changed nothing on the retro jersey? “Unveiling” seems formal for giving us a jersey that the players have been wearing for a while now.

I think this will finally break the curse that has been hanging over this franchise for 30 years.

They are unveiling the fact they are listening to the fans for the first time in 30 years.

Popowich has been going out of his way to shut down people leaking or suggesting info about the jerseys, so much so that I'm totally worried this won't be the announcement we are all expecting. Guess we'll know soon enough.

You really shouldn't be worried.

I am almost expecting more than just the retros tomorrow, to be honest. I think we might see something totally unexpected (and good)

I think he's just being coy.

Steinberg flat out called the full time home/away retros the worst kept secret.

Flames Twitter now saying Tomorrow at 9AM. Scorp with the scoop!

https://twitter.com/user/status/1312920442542321666

...I still hope we get the unveiling of a 3rd jersey alongside the retro rebrand, because this year sucks and I’ll take any cool news I can get.

It would be the perfect opportunity to drop a jersey that won’t get #### on. Two great jerseys, and do whatever you like third. People will be thrilled!

That would be the ULTIMATE dream. Would probably need to change my entire outfit after hearing the official news.

Add in the 04 black C jersey, and it's the perfect set.

I will accept a variation of this to replace "first round-bust."

Those three kits were never issued together. Blasty came during the "Pedestal" jersey era.

Just pointing it out.

I don't think anybody said they have existed together before. It's that Twitter poster's proposed set for next season.

Wish they would slightly fix the yellow piping on the home reds to match the away kit. Too much real estate on the home ones for the yellow IMO.

Which is why I don't think they'll run with three retros from two different eras concurrently, especially in a non-anniversary year.

The league and Adidas seem to be moving towards kits in non-traditional fabrics/designs which makes me think a brand new third (though perhaps with a traditional "feel") might be the strategy.

There's very few palatable retro jersey options after the classic home/aways. Blasty is probably the third-most popular, and would probably get its own showcase after the novelty of the classics has peaked.
